I think I'm with Michael Peters on this one, it should go to a local user first. The local account can then be set up w/a .forward/.procmailrc file or further aliases editing to send it on elsewhere, or the user can just look at their local mailbox. By default, even if you're not checking the local box, you get notified of new mail there in a shell, and allowing the user to send the mail to an external (and possibly not accessible due to any number of reasons) email address could indeed result in some nasty loops. -- Jarod Wilson jarod@xxxxxxxxxxxx
